Chapter 249: Living together, dying together
"Your guess is almost right. It should be so."
Ko Xiu Na's adopted children all sighed, "From the time we can remember, our mother has been unhappy. She has been depressed for many years. We don't know if her cancer was related to her mood."
A letter was also found in her study. Her adopted son said, "These are what she hoped to give to Academician Zeng after her death, but she didn't expect that the two of them left almost at the same time..."
They took a letter but did not open it. Instead, the letter papers seemed to be blown away by an unknown wind and slowly fell to the ground.
"Ayao, have you been doing well these years? I haven't been doing well at all. I miss you often."
"My father's last wish was that if I were with you, he would die with regret."
"I wanted to ignore his last wish, but every time I closed my eyes, I would wake up from a nightmare of his hideous face."
Later, Ji Ning and Zhou Jingmo interviewed many people and pieced together the story of Academician Zeng and Ke Xiu Na.
Grandma Ke was different. She was the eldest daughter of the Republic of China. The Ke family was a scholarly family and a prominent family in the Republic of China.
Academician Zeng was originally an orphan who was adopted by the Ke family and worked as a domestic servant.
They grew up together. Grandma Ke noticed that Academician Zeng loved reading and had the ability to remember everything he read, so she often secretly took books from home for him to read and then returned them.
In this way, the two grew up day by day and became young boys and girls who were just beginning to fall in love.
Grandma Ke’s father saw that Grandma Ke was interested in this poor boy.
Ignoring Grandma Ke's cries and pleas, he was beaten with a rattan stick several times, causing him to vomit blood, and then he was driven out of the house.
During that time, Grandma Ke, a lady from a wealthy family, climbed over the wall to bring him medicine.
She broke her leg, but was afraid that he would notice it, so she covered it with her jacket and skirt. Then the next day, her old injury had not healed yet, and she crawled out and broke it again, for fear that Academician Zeng would die outside.
So much so that many years later, the young lady still walked a little unnaturally, which was proof that she had loved the boy with all her heart.
It had been raining heavily those days, and the rain washed Academician Zeng's blood, turning the ground blood red.
He nearly died, but managed to stay alive with a determination to fight to the death. He vowed to make a name for himself and go back to marry Grandma Ke.
But when he became a little famous, all he got when he returned was the news that Grandma Ke was going to get married.
Old Master Ke pointed at his nose and cursed, "You will never have a chance in this life. If I had known that you would repay kindness with enmity, I would have let you freeze to death in the snow!"
In the end, Grandma Ke got married.
That day, tears and blood flowed from Academician Zeng's eyes, and from then on he lived his life as a game.
Grandma Ke had an unhappy marriage. Her husband was not kind to her. He drank and beat her all the time. She didn't have any children, so they finally divorced.
He found her again, but she didn't want to see him.
Her father's last wish before his death was, "Is he the only man left in this world? If you are still with that poor boy, I will die with my eyes wide open! He is a slave of our Ke family, and he will be a slave for the rest of his life! You are the eldest daughter, he is not worthy of you!"
The final result can be imagined.
They are trapped throughout their lives by dead people, feudalism, and dogma.
Academician Zeng is another "Zhou Jingmo", a genius, independent, and his heart blossoms because of the girl's salvation.
However, they only met another ending.
He was unable to jump out, perhaps because he was deeply touched by seeing Zhou Jingmo and Ji Ning.
It was his cowardice and lack of courage that led to this misplaced life.
Grandma Ke was bound by feudal ethics, but what was he afraid of? Even if he threatened to kill himself, even if he tied her up and took all the sins on himself, she should not live such a sloppy life.
A few months ago, he learned that Grandma Ke had cancer. She didn't want to live anymore and only wanted to be with her.
Or perhaps there was an opportunity, a method that would allow him to help Zhou Jingmo and exchange his life for his own, so he did it without hesitation.
This is the best of both worlds. The living can continue to live happily, and he can accompany her to eternal sleep peacefully.
Zhou Jingmo and Ji Ning figured this out and felt sorry for the couple. Ji Ning looked at Grandma Ke's adopted sons and daughters and asked, "Can they be buried together?"
They looked at each other, then nodded in unison, "Of course."
"Since mother asked us to treat Academician Zeng as our own father, it means that she has him in her heart. When she was alive, we, as children, did not do a good job and failed to resolve the knot in the hearts of the two elders. Since this is the case, we must make up for their regrets now."
So Academician Zeng and Grandma Ke were buried together, with both names engraved on the tombstone.
Husband: Zeng Yao
Wife: Ke Xiuna
Tomb of.
The inscription on the tomb reads, "Although we may not share the same bed in life, we will be buried in the same grave in death."
"Master, Master."
Zhou Jingmo knelt down.
It was Academician Zeng who gave him a new life. "I will cherish it. Thank you."
Ji Ning also knelt down and bowed to the two of them, "Thank you."
After this experience, they cherish this hard-earned happiness even more.
I don’t know whether Academician Zeng and Grandma Ke will be reborn or in a parallel universe.
If it were possible, this time the blood-stained boy would definitely reach out his hand to the young lady, with a firm look in his eyes, "Come with me."
This time, the girl in the jacket and skirt will definitely smile brightly, put her hand into the boy's hand, and nod shyly, "I'll go with you."
I pull you out of the darkness, and you give me light.
I don’t know if it was because of the incident with Academician Zeng and Grandma Ke, but Ji Ning was depressed for many days, so that the surprise brought by Zhou Jingmo’s awakening was somewhat reduced.
Zhou Jingmo was supposed to stay in the hospital for two months, but after only one month, he ended his hospitalization early on the pretext of wanting to go home.
Mainly, he didn't want Ji Ning to run between the workplace, the hospital and home all day long, as it would make her too tired.
She had been very busy during this period. When she woke up, she was found to have lost a lot of weight. She was wearing a white fairy-like dress, but it seemed as if it could be blown away by the wind.
During the time when he was not in charge of the company, Lin Xiaokang managed the company very well. Although the company did not continue to grow at a high speed, it continued to climb at a steady pace.
Pei Qingrong went to the company to help whenever he had time. He lost a lot of weight, had an unshaven beard, and looked unkempt, because he firmly believed that his good friend would come back and could not bear to leave this orphan and his widow behind.
Zhou Jingmo stayed in the hospital for a month and then went home to recuperate for some time. His physical condition had recovered visibly, but Ji Ning still loved him and didn't dare let him do any dirty or tiring work, and protected him well.
He became Zhou*Daiyu*Jingmo.
